One pan chicken tomato with rice is out of this world. It’s another of our 30 minute recipes which will make you life so much easier. I make it up at once a month and my family and friends love it. I have to add it’s great for a midweek meal.
I use chicken thighs as I like the taste, but you can use boneless skinless breasts if you like. The fat adds a nice texture to the dish though.
In therms of the spices, I use salt, pepper, onion, garlic, bell peppers, but you can add the spices of your choice.
